Immortals of Aveum is making a second attempt, available this month via PlayStation Plus, and it seems developer Ascendant Studios still has a few magic tricks up its voluminous sleeve. Two patches are planned for the game, one which will add the now-expected HDR support and another which will add AMD's fancy new FSR 3 technology, marking the first time a console has employed the tech.
Digital Foundry has all the technical details and reports that the two updates are inbound. The first, patch 1.0.6.3, will add HDR support and is expected to roll out to consoles today. The next, 1.0.6.4, will add the more exciting FSR 3 and is expected «in just a few short weeks».
According to a press release: «Patch 1.0.6.4 will also extend FSR 3 support for Variable Refresh Rate (VRR) monitors and TVs on both PC and consoles, which will improve frame pacing and reduce occurrences of judder or screen tears.» FSR 3 technology purports to boost the frame rate of existing games by inserting newly generated, interpolated frames seamlessly, resulting in a smoother overall experience.
